Message: [QUOTE="Brooky03, post: 1080585"] Bargnani works in the right system. If you're going to lean on him for defense, obviously you're screwed. But, if you run the right system, he's fairly priced for his offensive ability alone. Also, the role players hurt cap space how I see it. I was banking on Chandler and Felton being gone, so I didn't consider their moves to be saving the Knicks any money. Having as many non-contributors earning $1.5M+ as the Knicks do adds up and hurts. Hopefully, they'll be dumping the majority of them. Dalembert needs to go, Ellington isn't going to do anything special, Shannon Brown's minimum salary can be replaced with a second year player's minimum, and ditto for Odom. Prigioni needs to go, too; they have a backup with Larkin who will be healthier. That's around $7 million when you subtract out the contracts for the guys that would replace them. [/QUOTE]
